#2404 - Lazy Chocolate Cake

(by Shirley McNevich)

1 1/2 cups flour
1/4 tsp. salt
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. vanilla
3 TBSP Hersey's cocoa
1 cup white sugar
7 TBSP canola oil
1 TBSP cider vinegar
1 cup cold water

Into an ungreased 9 x 9 square cake pan sift the flour, salt, baking soda and cocoa--stir the dry ingredients with a fork. Make 3 wells (holes) in the dry ingredients. In the first hole add the vanilla. In the second hole add the canola oil. In the third hole add the cider vinegar. Pour the cold water evenly over the top of all the ingredients, then use the fork to lightly stir all of the ingredients just until the batter is formed. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes--test with a toothpick for doneness. Cool completely. Frost as desired.
